Well basically a young boy that lives in the ozarks of Oklahoma wants a coon dog so through hard work he saved up enough money to buy two redbone coon hounds. Little anne and big dan. he then sets out hunting with them after training them to track scents. he develops a bond with his dogs and goes through pretty much everything imaginable throughout the book. The book is very sad at the end when big dan dies after a battle with a mountain lion. little ann dies shortly after from a broken heart. as the boy has to move he looks to the place where he buried the dogs. a red fern had grown up there. very sad story but one of the greatest of all times
No. A fern is firmly grounded in the soil it sits in
Unfortunately you have to respect her, let her be and move on.
The conflict is that Billy (main character) wants 2 pups but doesn't have the money to buy them. Mama wants to move to the city so her kids can get a better education but they don't have enough money. actually the conflict is that Old Dan gets attacked by a mountain lion and later dies of to much blood loss (poor baby :( ) then Little Ann gets depressed cause of the loss of Old Dan and starves her self then dies of starvation.......yeah i hate the book (it's 2 sad) i had 2 read it in school...curse that heartless teacher of mine >:(
